i didn't drop the tire pressure at all. i was going to but one of the member told me to leave it alone. it was cold and windy in the 40* degrees. yup i was trapping few time @ 110. was even trapped at 111 mph at one time. i think i ran the fastest for 3800 V6 all motor out of the group and all of them are grand prix and bonnaville. have one turbo gtp made one pass, but broke his car at the next pass.

tried the E brake , but mess up i still end up running 12.5 tho.

second time E braking burn out. i didn't have the E brake pop all the way out and it was still stuck while i was giving it gas....not only that i forgot to turn off the heat LOL all the smoke suck inside that's why you can hear my local club member laughing OOOPS lmao. well at least i got both them tires spinning and lot of smoke lol.

VERY GOOD Silver! 12.5 & 111 mph is pretty respectable!
As for the e-brake burnout, I tried that this summer (not at a track), and if flat spotted the rear tires all the way to the cords. Completely TRASHED my tires. Won't try THAT again, at least on a road! Had a HUGE fog of smoke rolling across a field tho!

i'm running slicks tho that's different than street tires. i have to really heat up the tires to get it stick. here's a video of me against a Z06. he got about 680 whp think. forgot what his dyno was but it's around there.

Can you really say all motor when you are boosted with the supercharger? Doesn't any kind of boost (turbo / super / nitrous) negate that?

:P

On that note, great times and a fantastic car

well depend how you look at it. i say mine is all motor cuz i'm not spraying or turbo. turbo and spray are more of a after market power adder. my car was already came with factory supercharged and the only thing i done to it was replacing stock parts. most of my engine bay still have stock parts and look.
